You will be issued a University Identification Card upon arrival your first semester. You are expected to hold onto this card for the duration of your time at Cumberland University. You may be asked to present it at any time by a University official. Your ID card serves as your access to enter various venues, verify your identity, and serve as your meal and library card.

Replacement cost for a lost ID is printed in the most current Cumberland University Register, payable in the Business Office. Damaged cards may be replaced free if the damaged card is brought to the Office of Residence Life.
